Aerobic respiration is more efficient than anaerobic respiration​

Aerobic cell respiration is roughly 18 times more efficient than anaerobic cell respiration. Your cells require a lot of energy and are dependent on the high efficiency of aerobic respiration. Overall, aerobic respiration converts about 40% of the available energy of glucose into ATP.

Explanation:

a. decomposes use carbon from dead organisms as fuel for cellular respiration, returning carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere.
